CHALLENGE

The idea was to combine traditional knowledge of the market with systems identifying discrepancies and availability of inventory across international locations. The founders required that the client find a partner capable of developing a first functional prototype.

Because local talent was not affordable, the client needed an outside partner.

Ruby on Rails and database development experience was essential.

The partner needed to be able to keep project cost-flexible/sustainable and ramp up development as needed.
